High Value SG

Jordan Clarkson-Los Angeles Lakers (5,700): Clarkson’s salary is finally starting to rise as a result of his increase role in LA. He is coming off a bad night last night, though, when he only managed 15.6 fantasy points despite playing a team-high 29 minutes in a good matchup in New Orleans. He had just 9-3-2, but he should be able to bounce back against the Bulls after posting over 29 fantasy points in three of his previous four games and five of his previous seven.∗∗

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope-Detroit Pistons (5,000): KCP is a boom-or-bust play tonight as the Pistons come to Boston. He has scored in double digits in each of his last five games and exploded for 39.9 fantasy points last night in Charlotte on 18-7-7. He has over 30 fantasy points in four of his last five games but his other game was just 13.4 fantasy points against the Thunder and he only managed 19 fantasy points against Boston when he faced them back on the 19th.

Wesley Matthews-Dallas Mavericks (4,700): Matthews is a notoriously streaky shooter, and his shot is coming around lately helping him to score at least 18 points in three of his last four  games and post 28.1 fantasy points on Sunday against the Pelicans. With Dirk Nowitzki back on the sidelines, the Mavs need scorers on offense and Matthews gives them some nice backcourt potential even in a tough matchup with San Antonio. 

Josh Richardson-Miami Heat (4,600): With Tyler Johnson, Dion Waiters, and Justise Winslow all out, Richardson has been getting plenty of playing time and opportunity in the Miami offense. Johnson could return tonight (questionable), but even if he does I like Richardson’s upside as the Heat hit Denver. Richardson has at least 12 points in each of his last three games and in six of his last eight. He has at least 22 fantasy points in five of those eight games, and I like his high ceiling against a banged up Nuggets backcourt that is allowing the most fantasy points per game in the NBA to opposing SG.

Justin Holiday-New York Knicks (3,500): If you have to spend the minimum at SG, Holiday is the play I like the most since he has scored at least double-digit fantasy points in seven of his last eight games including five games over 15 fantasy points during that timespan. Holiday is a solid defensive option who contributes good non-scoring numbers along with a few buckets as part of the Knicks’ second unit.
